b Maximum uptake capacity of nanofibres against some activated carbons.
On a separate occasion, subjects performed an exhaustive incremental cycling test (Lode Excalibur Sport, Groningen, the Netherlands) to determine maximal power output (Wmax) and maximal oxygen uptake capacity (VO2peak) using an online gas analysis system (SensorMedics, Bilthoven, the Netherlands).
14 In contrast to leisure time physical activity, most occupational physical activity in modern industrialised societies does not include activities with high enough intensity to increase the maximal oxygen uptake capacity (physical fitness).
Several include: increased maximal oxygen uptake capacity (V ˙ O 2 max ), improved blood-pressure control [ 10], decreased arterial stiffness [ 11], decreased systemic inflammation [ 12], improved solute removal by dialysis [ 13, 14], increased muscle mass, quality and force [ 15], and favorable psychological adaptations (e.g., higher perceived quality of life) [ 16].
Maximum oxygen uptake capacity (VO2max), the maximal amount of oxygen per unit of time that can be delivered to the peripheral organs including the skeletal muscle (where it is used to sustain muscular contraction at peak exercise), is a bench mark measure of physical performance/work capacity [50].
It offers unchanged and optimized gas uptake capacity.
5-HT = serotonin; Bmax = maximal membrane binding capacity; FIQ = Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire; FM = fibromyalgia; Kd = dissociation constant; Km = Michaelis constant; SERT = specific serotonin transporter; SSRI = selective 5-HT reuptake inhibitor; TPi = tender point index; Vmax = maximal uptake rate of SERT.
Therefore, inflammation prevents maximal uptake of oxygen by cells.
The uptake by the synaptosomes at 30 min in [H]dopamine only was taken as maximal uptake (100%).
Consequently, the buffer capacity of the ocean and its CO2 uptake capacity decrease.
